Description

August 15 Toronto Michael Riordon lodged a complaint with the Ontario Press Council against the Toronto Star, accusing the paper of publishing a letter to the editor written by him but with substantial alterations of content. The original letter had criticized the Star for its continuing prejudice against gay people; when it appeared in the paper's "Voice of the People" section on February 28, 1975, the criticisms of and references to the Star were deleted without acknowledgement. The complaint was later dismissed by the Council.
